Yeah, just imagine the satisfaction of posting the pics of the completed project and wagging your finger at the nay sayers.
I'll tell you what, I didn't do mine because I didn't have the time, tools, or knowledge to do something like that myself, but I just got involved in a rebuild on a Chevy 350 and it's been a blast so far. Just take your time and get it right the first time (if that's possible). Good luck!
